Chapter 214: Prosperous Old Town
The next morning, Haoran walked out of the cattle slaughter inn with a pair of big eyes and a depressed expression, and followed him with a bad smile on her cheeks with a touch of blush.
The two first found the miner Tahuon, and when Haoran returned the map to Tahuon, Tahuon actually gave Haoran a perfect topaz with a thousand gratitudes, so that the legendary wand Starfire increased its intelligence attribute by 44 points again after setting two perfect topazes.
After saying goodbye to Tahuen, Haoran walked directly out of the town of New Tristm with Ayaka Otomi, and walked towards the old town of Tristm through the road of Guò Old Town.
Diccain said that Comac is now in the old town, and Haoran hasn't seen Comac for a long time, and he still has the impression of the scene of the two facing the infinite skeletons, which is a battle between the two of them to experience life and death together. Although Komac is full of 'holy light' and 'doctrine' or something, Haoran doesn't hate Komako, but he is definitely a person worthy of deep friendship.
However, my brain is a little dead, and I can't imagine that the level of brainwashing in the dark world is not inferior to the pyramid scheme in the present world.
Walking on the quiet path and looking at the dense woods around him, Hao Ran even recalled his experience when he first arrived in the world of Diablo, and it was at that time that he realized for the first time that the people around him seemed to have their own stories. Whether it's Rose, Wolf, or Kevin.
"I don't know, how are they now......" Haoran said with a faint smile on his face, looking into the distance, and muttering to himself.
"Who? …… Are you friends here? Ayaka Otono had a sweet smile on her cheeks, pursing her lips and staring at Haoran.
"Forehead ......" saw Ayaka's expression. Hao Ran was speechless for a moment, turned his head and said: "At first, they were just ordinary friends, but now they are companions and brothers who depend on each other in life and death!" ”
"I can't think of it. The nightmare of a generation of thieves in the real world has always been a lonely ...... Here there is a reputation that is supported by thousands of people, brothers who depend on each other for life and death! It's really surprising! Ayaka Otonai didn't continue to laugh at Haoran this time, but instead showed a look of surprise on her cheeks.
"Yes! I also didn't expect that two different worlds, the same people, have different opportunities! ”
Haoran was full of emotion in his heart. He didn't continue to say anything along the way, just walked silently, looking at the familiar scenery around him. And the sound of Ayaka is also interesting, and she is not bothering Haoran. Just silently followed his side and walked forward together.
At noon, the sky was still as dark as ink.
At this time, Haoran and Ayaka finally arrived in the old town of Trisham. The first time I came here, it was in ruins. But now it has regained its prosperity.
On the periphery of the old town, a tall and wide stone wall was built, and a heavily armed militia guarded the stone wall, and when they saw Haoran, almost all of them showed shocked looks on their faces, and even some militiamen actually shouted and rushed down the stone wall to open the town gate.
After a while, I saw Joshua and Ilan, who were wearing bright armor, running out with excited expressions. came to Haoran and bowed deeply.
"Your Excellency, you're finally back. Hundreds of thousands of townspeople in Old Town are looking forward to your return soon...... When everyone learns that you have eliminated Skeletron, they don't know how excited they are, and there are even many beautiful girls waiting in line to marry you! As soon as Ilan got up, he began to babble in excitement.
"Your Excellency Haoran, is there anything important about your return this time?" Compared to Elan, Joshua is much more steady, he knows that there must be something important when Haoran returns, and if he can help, he will definitely do his best.
Haoran was stunned by the attitude of the two, these two of them knew that during the New Tristm Guard Battle, both of them were militiamen who rushed to the front line to fight against the demon queen, why did they come to the old town at this time?
"Don't the townsfolk of Old Town know about an arcane mage attacking a hunting party? How could they expect me to come back? With a lot of doubts in his heart, Haoran couldn't help but ask.
"How so! No one in Old Town will ever doubt your ...... Whoever wants to doubt you, I'm the first to tear his mouth! Ilan said viciously.
"Your Excellency Haoran, you are too worried! The old town is full of people who were saved after you destroyed the demons, they are all nearby townspeople, and they have all witnessed what you have done, and they will never suspect you...... As for those who doubt you, it should be the victims who have come from other places to follow, and most of them are now concentrated in New Tristrom! Joshua explained with the same respectful look.
"Oh! So that's it...... For the first time, I was suspected that it was indeed New Tristham, not Old Town! Haoran nodded, and then a smile appeared on his face, exhaled deeply, and said with a smile: "That's fine...... Oh! By the way, Komak of the Templar Knights should be in Old Town! Where is he now, I have something to do with him! ”
Hearing Haoran's words, the two of them showed strange looks on their faces at the same time, and even Yilan's face was still afraid, thinking that something must have happened here that Hao Ran didn't know.
"What? What happened to Comac? Haoran was slightly stunned and asked anxiously.
"No, Your Excellency! It's just that there is a ghost in the old town, and even Lord Komac can't destroy her, and the townspeople don't dare to go out at night...... Even the patrolling militia did not dare to approach there! Joshua pondered for a moment, then said with a look of fear on his face.
"Yes! Just in time for you to get back, you must find a way to destroy that revenant! Otherwise, the new town that we all worked so hard to build will be ......," Ilan said with the same fear.
"Revenant? …… What is that? Ayaka Otomo, who had not spoken, was still immersed in the respect of the humans around her for Haoran just now, and suddenly asked after coming back to her senses.
"Revenant...... It is the ghost of a human being after death, retaining the consciousness of a human being, lingering in the place where she died and refusing to ascend to heaven...... To put it bluntly, it's what we often call ghosts! Haoran looked at Ayaka Otono Ayaka's puzzled and curious expression, and couldn't help explaining.
"There really are ghosts! Let's check it out! It's so big, I haven't seen a ghost look like yet! Ayaka Otomu said as if no one was around, and a blush appeared on her cheeks with excitement.
And the people around her, including Joshua and Ilan, turned their heads to look at her when they heard Ayaka Oto-no, and their bodies trembled at the same time, and their expressions were more ugly than seeing ghosts.
"Ahem...... Take me to see it! Maybe there's a way to destroy that revenant! (To be continued......)
